Description

If you’re visiting Chester anytime soon don’t miss out on the great new way to experience the city.

Walls Quest is a new GPS game-based guide to Chester. If you have never visited before you’ll see everything Chester has to offer from the shops, the racecourse, the cathedral, the castle and all whilst having fun on the famous Roman walls. If you know Chester well then you will be able to find out even more about the history of this fascinating city. For instance did you know that:

– Chester was formed in 79AD as a Roman Fort as was originally called Deva Victrix?– That the East Gate clock is the second most photographed in the country?– That Anglo-Saxon warriors wore more bling than most hip-hop stars?

Walls Quest challenges you to move around the Chester Walls using the GPS Quest map, take part in challenges to earn points and unlock rewards that you can play long after your visit. You will be able to watch videos of Queen Aethelfled rallying her troops right on the spot you are standing, take photos of yourself as a Roman gladiator, and hear directly from the main characters that make up Chester’s illustrious history.

This is the most enjoyable way to experience Chester using your phone. It’s incredibly simple and yet insanely addictive once you get started – can you complete the circuit and rise to the top of the Walls Quest leaderboard? You’ll come away knowing a whole raft of interesting facts and stories that you can impress your friends with and all this is completely free.

Good luck with your Walls Quest.
